joel anthony possess the same skill set as sammy D, why would they want another copy.
i think they should be looking more to getting a coach as he drew up terrible sets and had the wrong players on the court closing out games. should of been wade/lebron/haslem/chalmers/james jones or miller. you should only have 1 guy that can not shoot the 3 so wade can iso 1v1 better while making any potential DT's pay.

he's not really a great defender. lazy and gets pushed around. hardly a dominant rebounder.

Yeah that's what he is on a losing team... but he has the physical attributes and athletic abilities to turn it up if need be, such as if in a playoff run. Put him on a winning team, and have a coach hold him accountable, he'd be a hell of alot better than many.

Some can't, some choose not to.... but if given the right situation, I'll take the ones that have previously shown they can..... Sammy D is that type.

Yep, you guys are right... never mind the regular season... never mind the first 3 rounds of the playoffs.... let's judge Anthony ONLY by how he played in the Finals.

Brilliant.

His lateral quicks and energy already make him a valuable commodity as a defensive big. Add in the shotblocking and you have a very good piece... arguably better than Dalembert.

Having both would be ideal though TBH.

I agree.... having both in Miami's frontcourt would allow them to move Bosh for a PG too. Anthony is ideal for Miami cause he doesn't need any touches. Sammy might want a few, but he'd fit nice in that frontcourt with Joel.
